Enumeration of limit cycles

Consider once again a size-7V, radins-r one-dimensional CA with periodic boundary conditions

Chapter 5 provides some examples of purely analyti( al tools useful for describing CA. It discusses methods of inferring cycle-state structure from global eigenvalue spectra, the enumeration of limit cycles, the use of shift transformations, local structure theory, and Lyapunov functions. Some preliminary research on linking CA behavior with the topological characteristics of the underlying lattice is also described.
